Black Widow Crawls Into Laval Home

From CTV:

A family tradition turned up a frightening surprise this fall when the Del Gaudio family made their annual batch of wine; a black widow spider was crawling among their grapes.

Black as night with a red hourglass stamp on its belly, the venomous arachnid likely made its way into the Laval home after grapes in California were packed into a refrigerated truck, where the creature went into mini-hibernation, awakening once the crates were opened in Quebec.
